"Playing around?"
"You, you're fucking with me!"
Shen Hui's eyes widened, and he became timid again.
"Messing with you? Heh, I am messing with you, what can you do about it?"
Chen Xiao sneered, lunged forward with lightning speed, grabbed one of Shen Hui's fingers, and forcefully bent it.
With a crack, Shen Hui's finger was snapped off!
"Ah—"
Chen Xiao's movements were too fast. Shen Hui didn't react at first. When he did, he let out a loud cry.
"Ah, you bastard, it hasn't even been ten minutes, why are you breaking my finger?"
Shen Hui clutched his left hand with his right, trying to stop the bleeding from the severed finger.
"This one is on the house," Chen Xiao said nonchalantly. "As for why, why did you threaten and entice that patient's family just now?"
Shen Hui finally understood that Chen Xiao wasn't just dealing with him because of Wu Feier's matter, but also to stand up for the woman from earlier.
"So you're doing this for some cheap woman? Is it worth it? You two just met, and you're offending me for her, is it worth it?" Shen Hui roared.
"There's no such thing as worth it or not. I can crush you like an ant. Where does the word 'offend' even come into play?" Chen Xiao narrowed his eyes. "I say, you'd better call your second uncle again, otherwise, by the time he gets here, you might have already died from blood loss."
Shen Hui quickly called Shen Li'an and tearfully explained the situation.
After hanging up, Shen Li'an's expression turned grim. He instructed his secretary, "Prepare a helicopter for me. I need to get to Jiangcheng as soon as possible!"
"Director Shen, what exactly happened? Please remain calm!" The secretary had followed Shen Li'an for over ten years, and this was the first time he had seen him so flustered.
"I told you to hurry and prepare, do you understand? Why are you asking so many questions!" Shen Li'an yelled at his secretary.
"Yes, Director Shen, I'll go prepare right away. Please wait a moment!" The secretary quickly scurried out to make the arrangements.
Meanwhile, Shen Li'an was not idle. He called the mayor of Jiangcheng, Mo Junsheng, explained the situation, and asked him to rush to Jiangcheng Hospital to handle the matter.
Upon receiving Shen Li'an's call, Mayor Mo was furious and felt as if he were facing a formidable enemy. Who dared to kidnap the dean of Jiangcheng Hospital in broad daylight and demand that Director Shen personally confront them? What was this person's intention?
Unable to figure out the problem, Mayor Mo stopped thinking about it. He would know when he arrived. He issued instructions for his secretary to mobilize Jiangcheng's law enforcement. Mayor Mo intended to lead the team himself to rescue the hostages at Jiangcheng Hospital.
In less than five minutes, a large contingent of law enforcement officers, led by Mayor Mo, arrived at Jiangcheng Hospital. However, upon seeing the scene inside the hospital, Mayor Mo, and all the law enforcement officers were stunned. The hospital was completely normal. As it was nearing the end of working hours, doctors were leaving in an orderly fashion, with no signs of any disturbance. Was there a kidnapping here? It didn't look like it at all! The doctors were also puzzled as to what had happened to warrant so many law enforcement officers, and even Mayor Mo leading them...
However, Mayor Mo knew that Director Shen would not speak nonsense, so he ordered the officers to surround the entire administrative building. He, along with a few elite officers, headed towards the dean's office within the administrative building. After all, it was an order from Director Shen, and it involved Director Shen's family, so Mayor Mo had to personally handle it.
At the same time, ten minutes had passed since Chen Xiao broke Shen Hui's first finger.
"Ten minutes, and your second uncle still hasn't arrived." Chen Xiao shook his head helplessly.
"No, don't... Ah—" With a crack, Chen Xiao broke Shen Hui's middle finger on his right hand. They say that pain in the fingers is felt in the heart. Shen Hui was in so much pain that he almost fainted. Of course, to let him experience the full extent of the pain, Chen Xiao would not let him faint.
"Second Uncle, when are you coming to save me? I, I, I've lost two fingers..." Shen Hui's face was pale, and his voice was weak.
"You scoundrel, you scoundrel... Hui'er, hold on, your second uncle will be here soon, and your second uncle will avenge you!" On the other end of the phone, Shen Li'an was furious. As he spoke, another five minutes passed.
Chen Xiao grabbed Shen Hui's finger. Shen Hui begged for mercy, "Please, please, don't, don't, I was wrong, I know I was wrong, please..." Shen Hui was in so much pain that he was incoherent. Chen Xiao naturally wouldn't be soft-hearted. However, just as he was about to act, a shout came from outside the door.
"Stop!" Mayor Mo, leading a team of elite officers, finally arrived at Shen Hui's office. Shen Hui almost cried out in relief. A savior had finally arrived.
Mo Junsheng saw that the person committing the assault on Shen Hui was Chen Xiao, and he was immediately stunned. "Chen, Chen Xiao... it's you?"
"That's right, it's me. Long time no see, Mayor Mo." Chen Xiao said with a smile.
Mayor Mo breathed a sigh of relief. "So it's you. You scared me to death. Stop playing around and release Shen Hui quickly!"
"Release him? Do you know what happened? Do you know what this kid did? And you want me to release him?" Chen Xiao asked doubtfully.
"Chen Xiao, the overall situation is important!" Mayor Mo asked the officers to wait outside. After carefully closing the door, he walked over and said with a profound expression, "Shen Hui is Director Shen's nephew, and he is the only male heir among the younger generation of the Shen family."
"Oh, I see, no wonder." Chen Xiao sneered. No wonder Director Shen allowed Shen Hui to act so recklessly. It turned out that Shen Hui was the only lineage of the Shen family.
"Yes, so you should release Shen Hui quickly. Director Shen is on his way here, and I heard he's coming by helicopter. Now you know how much Director Shen values this kid!" Mayor Mo glanced at the two fingers on the ground, and his mind buzzed. What should be done? What should be done?
"Chen Xiao, I don't care what grudges or conflicts you have between you. Now, you must release Shen Hui. Don't worry, I will help mediate the aftermath!" Mayor Mo hesitated, then sighed and said, "I dare not guarantee anything for you, but rest assured, I will do my best." Mayor Mo had noticed Wu Feier beside Chen Xiao earlier. He thought Chen Xiao was acting rashly out of anger for his woman, a decision made in a moment of lost reason. What he needed to do now was to stabilize Chen Xiao. Chen Xiao looked at Mayor Mo and said a faint "Oh," then applied more force to his hand.
"Ah—" A scream echoed throughout the office. Shen Hui's third finger was broken!
